Arcade Fire Ocean Of Noise Lyrics

Ocean Of Noise Lyrics

In an ocean of noise,

I first heard your voice,

Ringing like a
bell,

As if I had a choice, oh well!



Left in the morning

While you were fast asleep,

Into an ocean of violence,

A world of
empty streets.



You've got your reasons,

And me I've got
mine,

But all the reasons I gave

Were just lies to buy myself some
time.



In an ocean of noise,

I first heard your voice,

Now who here among us

Still believes in choice?

—Not I!



No way of knowing

What any man will do,

An ocean of
violence

Between me and you.



You've got your reasons,

And me I've got mine,

But all the reasons I gave

Were just lies
to buy myself some time.



I'm gonna work it out.

'Cause time
won't work it out.

I'm gonna work it out.

'Cause time won't work it
out for you.

I'm gonna work it on out.
